L-U-B-E isn’t a dirty 4 letter word

To lube or not to lube – that is the question. Is it good for you? Can you do it too much? Should you live your life without lube?

A few weeks ago I read an article from a popular sex expert who said that no women need lube. It doesn’t matter if you are in menopause or suffer from Vaginismus. I honestly don’t remember if she mentioned anal sex. God I hope not. Anal sex with no lube is a no go – a no go no matter what.

If you have any kind of vaginal dryness—whether naturally, due to medical complications or just because you’re post menopause—lube is like a gift. Sex becomes so much easier with it. –Dr. Dorree Lynn

But the theme of the article was it’s a no lube world. I think stating that is a disservice to women.

Granted – if you’re young (pre-premenopausal) & healthy – the only three reasons to use lube are:

With sex toys.

For anal sex.

Slippery sex is a turn-on.

And it doesn’t matter what stage of life you’re in:

Flavored lubes can make oral sex much more fun, and are safer than using whipped cream or honey, which can cause infection. –Charlie Glickman, Ph.D.

I have worked with energy most of my life. At age 47 and premenopausal, lube isn’t a must-have every time – but it is nice every once in awhile. I’m sure as I age and my hormones change – I will use more. I know – TMI – but if I work with energy ALL the time and my “thing” is sexual energy and I still need it at times. So what happens to women who don’t spend so much time working with energy?

Every once in a while you’re going to need lube!

I always recommend a personal lubricant for women with dryness. -Dr. Patti Britton.
